Another 3 years of Brock Lesnar... this is good yet bad at the same time lol.
I wouldn't mind if he holds onto the Title til SummerSlam or even WM35, thus breaking Punks 434 day reign as WWE Champion.

Lesnar vs Lashley for the title would be awesome. Roman just isn't gonna make it imo, he has no connection with the audience. Modern day Luger.

i thought brock only signed for 6 more months he is going to fight in UFC at least 1 or two fights he will loose the belt to reigns in the steel cage. i read they will cheer for him more over there then here in the states. thought that was funny. same with paul heyman he is only signed for 6 months.

lesnar winning at mania had me baffled, but this explains it.
still find it wild that their largest show in their main market with their top consumers featured reigns losing.
sure, Saudi Arabian fans may cheer reigns, but he lost at wrestlemania. which will fans remember most? times are a a’changing apparently if wrestlemania isn’t the show to put people over.

Brock's face looks like a plum right after 5 minutes into a match. The thing with lesnar is that he pulls the same schtick, it's repetitive, boring and predictable. He needs to do something new, pull out a new move, do a new spot, something. This also means the same fueds where he shows up like 3 or 4 times and does nothing but taunt. Reigns should of won last night, it was what they were building up for. Also, did joe clarify if he's fighting Reigns for a shot at the title or just to fight?

If the multi-year deal report is true, added in Roman's promo last night, I wouldn't be surprised if Roman/Brock III happens at Mania 35. It would be unfathomable, hilarious, and infuriating.

I’d rather him leave. He does nothing for me at this point. If they signed him for more money then that’s ludicrous.

Guessing it's just a short extension and then he's gone after the Rumble event. Jericho talks about something similar in his book how they had WWE.com announce that he had signed a brand new contract in 2005 to make people think he was staying, when it was just a short extension as he was originally supposed to be gone after SummerSlam but Vince wanted him at Raw the next night.

I saw his new contract is a multi year deal, where he can also fight for the UFC. If thats really the deal, i totally see him losing his title at Saudi Arabia to Roman. Then again I thought Lesnar was gonna lose and leave WWE at Mania, so idk anymore whats gonna really happen

I hope he holds the title for the next 3 years without dropping it once.

I just don't understand his deal. He gets paid millions for working, what, 12 nights per year? He can't possibly draw enough money to justify his salary, even when you factor in merch sales.

I remember back in 2005, not too far removed from when Brock first left the WWE, there were rumors that the two sides were talking about him coming back. Brock apparently demanded a very sweet deal with minimal dates and a fat paycheck, but Vince rejected it. The roster back then was stacked with veterans and new blood so I wonder if that was the deciding factor. It seems as if Brock's UFC stint had empowered him with enough stroke to squeeze every last penny out of Vince for as little as possible in return. I also wonder if his presence offsets the huge tab. I'm sure he sells some tickets and merch, but the guy is never around and his whole gimmick has gotten kind of old. The same old same old for years now. Brock has Vince bent over a barrel. I guess you can say "good for him." On the other side of the fence, is another few years of the same Lesnar show we've seen since 2012 actually beneficial to the future of WWE? Curious how this pans out.

Why not? It’s a WWE heavyweight championship. There’s WWWF champion WWF Champion World Heavyweight Champion Undisputed Champion WWE World Heavyweight Champions WWE Universal Champion

There’s WWWF champion WWF Champion World Heavyweight Champion Undisputed Champion WWE World Heavyweight Champions WWE Universal Champion Different belt technically the belt AJ Styles has is the same belt CM Punk Held , same History, the belt Brock has , has only had four people ever hold it. It’s like saying u hope Brock hold his belt longer then x-pac, but x-pac only Held the European title so Brock would then have to have the European title to hold it longer then x-pac.

There’s WWWF champion WWF Champion World Heavyweight Champion Undisputed Champion WWE World Heavyweight Champions WWE Universal Champion Yeah, that’s how they do it. In a few months he becomes the longest reigning HEAVYWEIGHT champion in modern day history. They count all Flair’s heavyweight runs too, even though they were different belts.
